INGREDIENTS

• 1 box angel food cake mix- the 1 step kind
• 1 15oz can Pumpkin
• 3/4 Cup water
• 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1 8oz pkg. reduced fat cream cheese
• Few tablespoons of water, to be mixed with cream cheese

DIRECTIONS

• Let the cream cheese soften on the counter for a while then use mixer and beat it with a couple of tablespoons of water until smooth.
• In a separate bowl, mix the cake mix, pumpkin, water, and cinnamon together until it is smooth and well mixed.
• In a 9x13 pyrex dish sprayed with PAM, add HALF of the cake-pumpkin mix. Then smooth it out with a rubber spatula. Drizzle half of the cream cheese over the top of it and take a small spatula to smooth it over the top. Add remaining cake-pumpkin mix and also the remaining cream cheese just making layers. Finally take a butter knife and sticking it into the mix, go back and forth over the top of the cake making figure “8s” - to blend it a bit.
• Bake for 35 minutes at 375°F OR until a toothpick comes out clean.
